You don't have to be an infrequent flyer to be afraid/uncomfortable when flying. My wife has probably flown more air miles than you ever will, yet is still uncomfortable during takeoff and landing. But so long as you have something to laugh about, it's all good, ain't it :rolloeyes:

As a frequent business flyer and high mileage car driver I would just like to see some outline proposal from the government as to where this extra tax money is going to be spent, and what benefit is will have on the environment.

It's just another way of of hiking taxes which will produce no overall benefit.
